[Ashley awoke to the chill of an autumn breeze moving across her body. Being half-asleep and without her surroundings yet registering in her mind, she assumed that she had simply forgotten to close her bedroom window the previous night, and made to roll out of her bed with the intent to close it and simply climb back in to go back to sleep

Hello?

[ Firo waves to her through the journal, trying to catch her attention. ]

You need somethin'?

[thegreatashley]

[The motion catches Ashley's attention easily, and she stares at the journal for a second as it registers in her mind that the person on this page is talking to her.

Weird. Mildly interesting, that this book was apparently capable of something like this, but weird.]

Knowing what's going on here would help. [Spoken just about as flatly as ever.]

[immamartillo]

It's kind of a long story but...

[ He pauses, resting his chin in his hand. There's really no easy way to break it. At least she's calmer than the typical New Feather. ]

Well, you're in a place called Luceti now. These guys called the Malnosso got you here; they're these freaky scientists. And well... Nobody knows if there's a way you can get home without 'em sendin' you.

[thegreatashley]

[This face. Just...this face.]

... What?

[Yeah, no, she's not quite buying it yet.]

[immamartillo]

Yeah, it's hard to believe, I know. But trust me. Anybody else here'll tell you the same.

There's this big barrier thing all around the village and the woods that prevents people from gettin' out.

[thegreatashley]

[Her expression sours considerably; she's putting two and two together here and it's not a very pretty picture: trapped with no way out, scientists-ugh, if they were anything like Penny's insane grandfather...]

So I'm stuck here, then. Wonderful.

[immamartillo]

[ He nods, then sighs. May as well get the rest of this over with. ]

And then every so often they do these experiments... Real crazy stuff happens.

[thegreatashley]

[Nope, not liking the sound of that one bit.]

What kind of crazy.

[immamartillo]

Embarrassin' and possibly harmful.

[ He just doesn't want to think about what happened with the moon. ]
